This recipe is awesome! These brownies don't taste lowfat at all. I love the subtle coffee flavor. I reduced the baking time to 20 minutes, because they dried out around the edges when I baked them for 23. Reducing the baking time made them nice and fudgy. I cut them up, wrapped in foil and froze. - 3/8/07

Made this twice, first time with splenda and applesauce in place of sugar and butter, and the second time I made it as listed. The one using splenda and applesauce was awful, way to think and not a good flavor.
Made a second batch as directed, and they turned out wonderfully, nice chewy and rich. - 11/19/09

Many of the wonderful recipes here do not provide the serving size. They will give the yield which can very slightly. Recipes have to be measured out to determine the serving size. It would be helpful if the recipes tell the size i.e. 1" x 1" or 1 cup so we know where we stand on planning meals. - 3/11/10

Rich, intense flavor, very moist and tasty. I made these brownies sticking strictly to the recipe, but using margarine instead of butter and adding walnuts. I had to bake them around 30 mins. I suggest you keep an eye on them to make sure you don't overbake them. So rich, a small serving suffices! - 1/31/10
